Answer:

In the Outsiders, the differences between the two brothers become evident in the first chapter. Ponyboy, being a teenager, disapproves of his brother Darry controlling him. He finds Derry's efforts unnecessary and desperately wants more freedom. Darry, on the other hand, wants to look after him and acts as a parent-figure. He forbids Ponyboy to go out at night all alone. He is convinced that him protecting his brother is the only way to avoid the intervention of social services.

Answer:

At the beginning of the novel, Pony thinks that Darry is being too strict. Darry gives Pony a curfew and does not like Pony walking alone at night. Pony, like many teenagers, wants more freedom. Pony is having trouble adjusting to Darry as a parent-figure. Darry is just worried about Pony. He has to do a good job of parenting or Social Services will split the family up. Pony getting jumped by Socks in chapter one validates Darry's concerns.
